Abstract

An algorithm is proposed combining a sliding controller and an internal-model controller for robust tracking and disturbance rejection. The sliding controller is enforced in the transient phase for fast response and taken over by a linear internal-model controller in the steady phase for smooth control efforts. An internal-model observer is introduced to estimate the equivalent control input from the chattering signals in the transient phase, so that a smooth transition between the two control laws can be ensured.
